I got all three items from the 89-cent menu at Taco Bell since I had been out canvassing semi-pointlessly for a few hours; it was freaking cold, Taco Bell was on the way back, and burritos are good any day of the week.

I had to pick up the slack with my grandmother, my mom had to cancel last minute, so I had to suffer road food again. This time it was Burger King, my "one last chance" for this chain. Had a Whopper Jr. no mayo well-done, 4pc chicken tenders with bbq sauce, and small onion rings with zesty sauce. Whopper jr sucked, didn't do a good job burning it, very flavorless and soggy everything as usual. Tenders have really lost their luster over the last few years, even their usually decent flavor just didn't deliver, and bbq sauce not as good either. Onion Rings delivered though, and love that zesty sauce they stole.

All in all, Burger King has officially dropped to the bottom of my fast food chain, which I never would have expected 5 years ago where they were near the top (I've been down on BK in the past, then gave them another chance, but I think this is it).

I've always preferred McDonald's to Burger King, but mostly because I am more familiar with it. It's been a long time since I've been to Burger King. When I go into a fast food place I'm not familiar with, I get confused trying to figure out the menu on the spot. Other than McDonald's, the other places I usually go to are Taco Bell and Subway, and I usually get the same thing. Chicken soft taco and/or bean burrito at Taco Bell (though the last time I went they no longer had the basic chicken soft taco, but some fancier version), and a turkey breast sub at Subway. I usually get that on wheat bread with mayo, lettuce, pickles, olives and American cheese. At McDonald's I used to get two cheeseburgers a lot, but the last few business trips I've taken where I had to eat there in the airport, I got the Filet o' fish instead.

burger kings over here have got really lame. last few places i tried everything was tiny. dry and flavourless. i used to love their spicy beanburger but now it's like a piece of fried dirt. economic recession or not there's no excuse for bad food.

The ones I highlighted in bold we don't have here. Some of them are elsewhere in Washington, but not close to me. Of the rest, I haven't eaten at Panda Express or Popeye's. The latter is kind of new. I think I ate at one in an airport, but I got a chef's salad or something. I've never ordered from Papa John's, but I think I've had some at work.

Since I moved out of my parents' house and bought my own place 5 years ago, I've only ordered pizza twice (Domino's), and only eaten out on my own a few times. Usually Subway or Taco Bell. I've eaten at the Old Country Buffet, though usually that is with family on Father's or Mother's Day or something. There have been a few times where our department at work got together for dinner for someone's birthday or a going away dinner for someone leaving the company. Business trips are about the only time I go out to eat. Olive Garden is the one we have eaten at the most, but not so much this year. My trips were shorter this year, so I only had one night to eat out, and ate at the airport on the travel days.

For quite a while at work, someone was taking orders for a weekly run to Robek's. I didn't participate except when my boss was buying for our department, but I do like the smoothies. I had a couple of gift cards and finally went there myself several months ago and got a smoothie and a wrap. It was pretty good, but also pretty pricey. I think it was $11. At least it's a lot healthier than most fast food.
